0patch, a unique patching solution offered by Acros Security, is making waves in the tech world. This innovative service delivers tiny code patches to fix critical security vulnerabilities in Windows and other software products. These patches, typically just a couple of CPU instructions, are applied to running processes in memory, providing a seamless and effective solution.
Looking Ahead to 2025
With Microsoft set to release the final security update for Windows 10 in October 2025, users are faced with a decision: upgrade to Windows 11 or join the Extended Security Updates (ESU) plan. However, 0patch has introduced a third option – receive timely fixes for critical security vulnerabilities discovered after 2025 at a significantly lower cost.
Expanding Support
Known for its micropatching service for Windows 7, 0patch has now extended its support to Windows 10 22H2. The company plans to offer in-memory micropatches for at least five years, with the potential for further extension based on demand. This move demonstrates 0patch’s commitment to providing ongoing security solutions for its customers.
Advocating for Users
0patch openly supports customers who are hesitant to transition to Windows 11. Many users prefer the familiar Windows 10 interface and have concerns about Microsoft’s direction, including issues such as app bloatware and privacy implications. 0patch’s alternative solution offers peace of mind to those who wish to maintain the stability and familiarity of Windows 10.
Comprehensive Bugfix Services
In addition to its micropatching service, 0patch offers various bugfix solutions, including patches for actively exploited flaws, bugs that software vendors choose not to address, and patches for third-party software products. This comprehensive approach ensures that users are protected from a wide range of security vulnerabilities.
Acros Security emphasizes that 0patch is a more affordable and accessible option compared to Microsoft’s ESU plan. With two distinct plans available, 0patch Pro and 0patch Enterprise, customers can choose the solution that best fits their needs and budget. This forward-looking approach to security patching is revolutionizing the way users protect their systems in an ever-evolving digital landscape.
